 Fall Book
I love for my students to make keepsakes in class, and these little books are one of my
favorite things to make! We make them several times a year for different occasions
and almost always for the different seasons. They're easy to make, and a lot of
learning and work goes into them!

Here's what you'll need:

13"x9" inch sheet of construction paper
Sheet of writing paper (just cut apart the four small pages)
Die-cut shape (depending on the book's topic)
Laminator
Permanent Mark

Steps:
1. I always pre-make the books first. To make, cut a 13"x9" sheet of construction
paper. Glue a die-cut shape on the front, and laminate!

2. Then, fold the sheet of construction paper in half. Place four sheets of writing paper
inside and staple.

3. Using a permanent marker, write the title of the book. I usually let the kids write their
own name on the cover when they get their book.

4. When making these books, we begin with the whole class participating in a
brainstorming session. For the fall books, I wrote "Fall" in a big circle. Then, I made a
bubble map with the following four sections: Clothes, Activities, Mother Nature,
and Animals. We brainstormed for each section separately. We talked about how
Fall affects the clothes we wear, activities we participate in, the weather/mother
nature, and animals.

5. After brainstorming, kids write two sentences about each topic. For example, they
write two sentences about how the weather/mother nature is in Fall.

6. When finished writing their sentences, they bring them to me/an assistant/volunteer
to edit.
7. Once their sentences are edited, students receive their book. They rewrite their
sentences on each page, then illustrate and color each page.

8. When finished, you might want students to share their books with other students in
the class or send them home. Parents will love these adorable books!

 Fall
Fall is a happy time. Here are some things that happen:

People enjoy looking at the red, yellow, orange, and brown

leaves. They rake the leaves after they fall to the ground. It
is very fun to jump in a pile of leaves.

Your mom will get out your long pants and long sleeved
shirts. You will need to wear a jacket or sweater. The
mornings are very cool.

We enjoy eating ripe, juicy apples. The apples are red,

green, or yellow. Sometimes a pretty apple is yellow with a
stripe of red or bright green with a stripe of yellow.

You may get a big, orange pumpkin in the fall. Your mom
might make pumpkin pie or you might carve a jack-o-
lantern.

The little squirrel runs all over the place looking for acorns.
He eats some and he hides some. The squirrel makes a cozy
nest in a tree as the weather gets cooler and the winds
blow.

The old fat bear eats and eats. He eats acorns, apples,
walnuts, chestnuts, and many other things. He eats and eats
because he is getting ready for the cold winter. He will sleep
and sleep during the cold winter.

The deer and the turkeys, the chipmunks and the raccoons
are all getting ready for winter. Fall is good.
